Chico’s Entrepreneurial DNA is as strong and deep as our educational and agricultural roots…and so is our drive to assist businesses.

Chico entrepreneurs are well-supported with direct resources and hands-on assistance to start, manage and grow their businesses. New businesses can access these resources and a permit ombudsman to fast-tract their location.
